Taste is nice citrusy sprucey hops balanced with slightly sweet malt. Ceebs25 (217), Naperville, Illinois, USA Jan 5, 2009 On tap at Bar Louie Tampa, FL. Quite strong and nice with tropical and sweet fruits, and also a good amount of floral hop. Poured with a pretty cloud fluff like head, great lacing, and dark orange in color. Very heavy hop bitter flavor, grapefruit, pine, mild fruit malt, red apples, and sticky, fruity linger. Everything doesn’t perfectly come together for me in this ipa, but i am definitley not complaining either.
